Adaptive Kalman filter based state of charge estimation algorithm for lithium-ion battery

In order to improve the accuracy of the battery state of charge（SOC） estimation, in this paper we take a lithiumion battery as an example to study the adaptive Kalman filter based SOC estimation algorithm. Firstly, the second-order battery system model is introduced. Meanwhile, the temperature and charge rate are introduced into the model. Then, the temperature and the charge rate are adopted to estimate the battery SOC, with the help of the parameters of an adaptive Kalman filter based estimation algorithm model. Afterwards, it is verified by the numerical simulation that in the ideal case, the accuracy of SOC estimation can be enhanced by adding two elements, namely, the temperature and charge rate.Finally, the actual road conditions are simulated with ADVISOR, and the simulation results show that the proposed method improves the accuracy of battery SOC estimation under actual road conditions. Thus, its application scope in engineering is greatly expanded.

Influence of Burden Distribution on Temperature Distribution in COREX Melter Gasifier

The temperature distribution of COREX melter gasifier was studied by using a two-dimensional 1/30 scale thermal dynamic model.A set of operating conditions,such as radial distribution of direct reduction iron（DRI） to lump coal and coke volume ratio,coke charging location,coke charging amount and coke size,were taken into account.The results show that the temperature near the wall region decreases with the decrease of the radial distribution of DRI to lump coal and coke volume ratio.The temperature with central coke charging is higher than that without central coke column.Furthermore,the temperature significantly increases with the increase of central coke charging amount.With the increase of intermediate coke charging amount,the temperature near the wall region decreases while the temperature in the intermediate region increases.The temperature increases with the increase of coke size whether charging central coke or intermediate coke.

Survival of charged ρ condensation at high temperature and density

The charged vector ρ mesons in the presence of external magnetic fields at finite temperature T and chemical potential μ have been investigated in the framework of the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model.We compute the masses of charged ρ mesons numerically as a function of the magnetic field for different values of temperature and chemical potential.The self-energy of the ρ meson contains the quark-loop contribution,i.e.the leading order contribution in 1/NC expansion.The charged ρ meson mass decreases with the magnetic field and drops to zero at a critical magnetic field eBc,which indicates that the charged vector meson condensation,i.e.the electromagnetic superconductor can be induced above the critical magnetic field.Surprisingly,it is found that the charged ρ condensation can even survive at high temperature and density.At zero temperature,the critical magnetic field just increases slightly with the chemical potential,which indicates that charged ρ condensation might occur inside compact stars.At zero density,in the temperature range 0.2 — 0.5 GeV,the critical magnetic field for charged ρ condensation is in the range of 0.2 — 0.6 GeV^2,which indicates that a high temperature electromagnetic superconductor might be created at LHC.
